Dockett live tweets getting pulled over by police

[KI Skins Fan]

Look, I don't have a problem with Dockett refusing to allow a police officer to search his vehicle. I think it's important that we all know our rights and that we stand up for our rights. I'm also aware that many, many people have been pulled over by police for "driving black" and that is just plain wrong.

However, we've got a thread about Darnell Dockett here. Darnell Dockett tweeting about a traffic stop! Darnell Dockett doesn't even play for the Redskins. Alas, this is the kind of thing we're reduced to talking about during this infernal lockout.

Please, please let there be a labor agreement soon so we can once again talk about Redskins Football!

Sheesh!

SB and Monkey, i understand the reason why Docket was stopped, he was speeding and the officer found reason to pull him over. That’s cool, I don’t have a problem with that and it doesn’t sound like Djnemo did either. I don’t care of a legitimate reason a police officer finds to pull Docket, you, me or anyone else over. I just have a problem with the assertion “if you have nothing to hide” youll submit to an officer searching your car. There is nothing wrong with saying no. I have no problem with a officer asking, but I think its admirable that Docket said no, as a celebrity he’s showing fans and kids, who may be more likely to be victims of police abuse, that theres nothing wrong with saying no.

Maybe someone that has a red convertible is more likely to get a speeding ticket or a person in a hooked up car is more likely to get pulled over because those people naturally draw more attention than your average dude in a honda accord (me) but that doesn’t mean what happens after the stop should put either of those drivers at a advantage or disadvantage. Its similar to saying that a women who dresses provocatively is asking for it. She may be seeking more attention, however, once you approach her you don’t have the right to grab her ass.

I don’t think I have ever acted like a asshole to a police officer when pulled over, but ive only been pulled over maybe twice in the last 10 years or so. Ill admit it ive been found guilty of Improper Lane Change, so what you’ve never made a mistake before? But if a officer asks to search my car im going to say no regardless if im hiding something or if I just relieved all my sins in the confession booth. If the officer then calls in a k9 or decides to act like a dick and makes me wait for up to 2 hours then I might not finish ever sentence with Sir or Officer. Again if the officer is obstructing my day im not going to be his best bud. Im also not going to be a jackass and say i know my rights and all that high horse stuff but im not going to say thank you after I wait 2 hours as he toys with me.
